so i tried searching and couldnt find what im looking for....

ive had my truck for about 4 months now, and when i go to make a 90 turn, i can feel a vibration which seams to be coming from the back of the truck. the tread on my rears isnt great. (i would say about 30% left)

but i only notice this when making slow sharp turns. do you think this could be caused by the tires?? maybe just hopping or slightly breaking lose while making the corners? or does it sound like something binding in the rear end of the truck?

any help would be awesome! really hoping i dont have to start pulling the rear end apart.... :shrug:

Your clutches in the rear end are chattering.
Change the axle lube and add some anti chatter additive.
If it's an aftermarket axle like a true-trac, then it's probably normal.

mine did that and it was my clutches worn out or my pinion bearing. i replaced both and fixed it. i changed my fluids to before that and not long after it started it again.

ouch, none of those really sound cheap....

the truck is not lowered at all... and it does not do it when going straight, even if launching hard. if im taking a corner going slow, i can feel the vibration when the steering wheel gets to a point. and it's at the same point every time...
